Rajasthan8217;s outgoing DGP A S Gill had it coming on the first day of the Gurjjar agitation itself. It was not the police firing, but events leading up to the incident that irked Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje. At least a day before the first police firing, intelligence reports were sent to Gill from the CM8217;s office that Gurjjar leader Kirori Lal Bainsla, who until then was in regular touch over the phone, had suddenly stopped taking calls. But the agencies had managed to identify Bainsla8217;s whereabouts by tracing the location of his mobile phone. Gill, insiders say, was given the information on the whereabouts of Bainsla and his supporters. The DGP, surprisingly, is believed to have been disinclined to round up the colonel8217;s supporters and took the inputs 8220;lightly8221;. Not surprisingly, the man who took over from him, K S Bains, is an officer with two decades of service in the Intelligence Bureau.
